"Is this Arthit?" asked Krist. "He's dead?"

Krist froze like seeing a ghost. He took a deep breath for a while and checking around the bed, he found nothing but the dust and dried flower traces. He then go to the drawer and took hand gloves and a mask then put them on as he go back to the hole.

"Sorry for having disturbed your tomb and rest," said Krist to the corpse.

After that, he starts to observe the skeleton looking for something hidden. He starts exploring the clothes, the pocket, the sheet, and everything around the bed, but he found nothing, not even a single piece of paper. Then suddenly his eyes point out at the neck bone, and he saw a crack there.

"OMG, is him been strangled to death?" Krist asked himself terrified. "So, he was murdered...." he guessed.

Krist looks around the room, he doesn't find any messed or any fight traces in the places. So Arthit has probably been murdered in another place and someone moved his body to here and intentionally closed up this place to make it his tomb, but who will do that since Singto fall into a coma after the accident.

"Or he been strangled in his sleep then the murderer closed his place so nobody will found it?" Krist builds some theory in his mind again. "I should bring him to the autopsy department to learn about how his death." Krist guesses.

He check his watch, it was 3.48 PM. Singto will be coming back soon and he can't let the police and ambulance cover this place when Singto's around. Suddenly he remember remain story left so he move the flashlight to the wall again to continue his search. He found the next story behind the old one, and it doesn't been covered by paint so he doesn't need to scrap it.

Gazing at my self in the mirror, I was like an empty shell. I wish we could be born again in the future where people will accept us, where we could walk in hand on hand and saying how much we love each other without being judge, where we could show our love to the world, but, when the time come, I wish I could talk, so we can share our thought and feeling, I want to sing a song while you playing the piano, I want to call your name and say I love you... P'Sing.

It's been two weeks since you leave me, when you read this story someday, maybe I won't be around anymore, but my love, my memory, and my soul won't go anywhere, I'll wait for you to come home one day. I'm promised."

P'Sing, you have someone who loves you this much, how do you not even realize it? It makes me jealous..."

"Wait, where is this person in Singto's time? Is he actually around him all this time? Did P'Sing hide a secret from me?" Krist come to analyze again. "Don't he say he lived at P'Sing next door? And he also came here often and also lived here."

"I should have P'Sing to show his time to me, I got to find this guy in the past since I was unable to talk to him in the present."

So he gets out of the tomb and pushes the wardrobe to close the hole temporarily.

"What to do with the wall?"

Krist asked himself as he look at the mess on the floor covered by the paint scraps scattered around. He then takes all the photos of the words on the wall before he gets out of the room and takes a broom to clean the floor. After finished he just left it like that for a while and locked the door.

Krist printed out the photo he just took from the room and put it on the table. He then tries to arrange and observe every photo carefully to find some clue. He suddenly notice that the first letter of every story was carved using capital and seemed to be carved deeper. So he rows it from the first story he found L-Y-R-A-L-G-E and doesn't need a minute for him to get the word.
